Don’t forget this week hosts a Sketch Day Saturday, so pop in on Saturday for a bonus sketch.

Also, for those that are in the Springfield, Illinois area, I’d like to extend an invitation. My Senior Art Exhibition will be available for viewing April 30th, and on Thursday May 3rd there will be an opening night reception from 5:30-8pm in the Visual Arts Gallery at the University of Illinois Springfield. I will be using a collection of Selkie comics for my part of the exhibition, so if you wanna see Selkie on a gallery wall and say hello to me, this would be a good time! Mark your calendars!

Hmmm… I’d usually encourage people to invest a large windfall in something that will last, but in this case, the young lady is probably better advised to buy something transitory — or something that her co-workers may never find out about.

Of course the best advice would have been not to steal someone else’s commission, even if the other guy’s a jerk…

That is so right. If she removed his name is one thing, but in the world of commission sales there are no prisoners. You blink and someone else will claim they talked to the people first. I wouldn’t be shocked if he had done the same thing to someone else.

I worked in commision sales once and the guy who tried to steal an almost $600. Commission from me insisted he had spoken to the people first. He claimed this to the district manager and manager. I won when the customers in question informed the boss that I was their son and they had no idea who the other guy was. Found out he had been taking commisions when he could from anyone he could.

Surprisingly, this happened at my previous job, about a month ago (by then I had already quit to back into college). The culprit also took my Xbox 360 and several of my games. The good news is that at least my hard drive is recoverable.
